1、Designation: D 1500 04aDesignation: 196/97An American National StandardStandard Test Method forASTM Color of Petroleum Products (ASTM Color Scale)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 1500; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, i

2、n the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1

3、 This test method covers the visual determination of thecolor of a wide variety of petroleum products, such aslubricating oils, heating oils, diesel fuel oils, and petroleumwaxes.NOTE 1Test Method D 156 is applicable to refined products that havean ASTM color lighter than 0.5. IP Method 17 includes

4、a procedure formeasuring the color of undyed, refined products such as gasoline, whitespirit, and kerosine by comparison with a series of IP Standard glasses. Italso includes a procedure by which petroleum products, except black oilsand bitumens, may be measured for tint and depth of color in terms

5、ofLovibond units by a series of red, yellow, and blue glasses.1.2 This test method reports results specific to the testmethod and recorded as “ASTM Color.”1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of

6、this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

8、rd:4IP 17 Color by the Lovibond Tintometer3. Summary of Test Method3.1 Using a standard light source, a liquid sample is placedin the test container and compared with colored glass disksranging in value from 0.5 to 8.0. When an exact match is notfound and the sample color falls between two standard

9、colors,the higher of the two colors is reported.4. Significance and Use4.1 Determination of the color of petroleum products is usedmainly for manufacturing control purposes and is an importantquality characteristic, since color is readily observed by theuser of the product. In some cases, the color

10、may serve as anindication of the degree of refinement of the material. When thecolor range of a particular product is known, a variation outsidethe established range may indicate possible contamination withanother product. However, color is not always a reliable guideto product quality and should no

11、t be used indiscriminately inproduct specifications.5. Apparatus5.1 Colorimeter, consisting of light source, glass colorstandards, sample container housing with cover, and viewingpiece as listed in Annex A1.5.2 Sample ContainerFor referee work, use the glasssample jar as shown in Fig. 1. For routine

12、 tests, it is permissibleto use a cylindrical, clear glass jar with a flat bottom of 30 to32.4 mm internal diameter, 115 to 125 mm in external height,and a wall thickness no greater than 1.6 mm as specified in Test1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D02 onPetroleum Products

13、 and Lubricants and is the direct responsibility of SubcommitteeD02.05 on Properties of Fuels, Petroleum Coke and Carbon Material.Current edition approved Nov. 1, 2004. Published November 2004. Originallyapproved in 1957. Last previous edition approved in 2004 as D 150004.This is also a standard of

14、Energy Institute issued under the fixed designation IP196. The final number indicates the year of last revision. This test method wasadopted as a jointASTM-IP standard in 1966. In the IP, this test method is under thejurisdiction of the Standardization Committee.2For referenced ASTM standards, visit

Sampli

17、ng6.1 Samples shall be taken in accordance with the instruc-tions in Practice D 4057.7. Diluent7.1 Solvent Kerosine(WarningCombustible. Vaporharmful.) Having a color lighter than +21 Saybolt color by TestMethod D 156 or 1.5 by Method B of IP 17, this material isused for diluting dark samples for the

18、 test. As an alternative,other solvents, such as white oil or solvent neutral 100 ofsatisfactory purity that meet the color requirements specifiedhere in 7.1, are also acceptable.NOTE 2Solvent kerosine complies with this requirement if it is lighterin color than potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) soluti

19、on formed bydissolving 4.8 mg of pure anhydrous K2Cr2O7in 1 L of distilled water.8. Preparation of Sample8.1 Liquid Petroleum Products such as Lubricating OilsFill the sample container to a depth of 50 mm or more andobserve the color. When the sample is not clear, heat it justsufficiently enough to

20、make it clear to perform the colormeasurement at that temperature. A sample heated to a tem-perature of 6C (10F) above its cloud point (see Test MethodD 2500) has been found suitable to test samples using this testmethod. When the sample is darker than 8 color, one mayeither stop the test and report

21、 “D8 ASTM Color” (see 10.2)orcontinue the test and mix 15 volumes of sample into 85volumes of solvent kerosine or alternative material (see 7.1)and observe the color of the mixture.8.2 Petroleum Waxes, Including PetrolatumHeat thesample just sufficiently enough to make it fluid and clear toperform t

22、he color measurement at that temperature withoutheating the wax excessively, because oxidation can occur,along with consequent discoloration of the test specimen. Asample heated to a temperature of 11 to 17C (20 to 30F)above its congealing point, as determined in accordance withTest Method D 938, ha

23、s been found suitable to test samplesusing this test method. When the sample is darker than 8 color,one may either stop the test and report “D8 ASTM Color” (see10.2) or continue the test and mix 15 volumes of melted samplewith 85 volumes of solvent kerosine or alternative material (see7.1) brought t

24、o the same temperature and test the mixture atthat temperature.9. Procedure9.1 Place a sample container or containers, filled to a depthof at least 50 mm with distilled or deionized water, in thecompartment or compartments of the colorimeter throughwhich the standard glasses will be observed. Place

25、the samplein its container in the other compartment. (When using athree-field comparator, this will be the middle compartment.)Cover the containers to exclude all exterior light.9.2 Switch on the light source and compare the color of thesample with that of the standard glasses. When using athree-fie

26、ld comparator, the sample must be bracketed by darkerand lighter discs or by an exact match and a darker disc.Determine for two-field comparators which glass matches thecolor of the sample; or if an exact match is not possible, thenuse that glass which possesses the next darker color.10. Report10.1

27、Report as the color of the sample, the designation ofthe glass producing a matching color (for example; “7.5ASTMColor.”)10.2 If the color of the sample is intermediate between thoseof two standard glasses, report that the sample is less than thedarker glass designation.As an example, report the desi

28、gnationof the darker glass preceded by the letter “L” (for example,“L7.5ASTM Color”) or with a “8 ASTM Color.”)10.3 If the sample has been diluted in accordance with 7.1,report the color of the mixture followed by the abbreviation“Dil” (for example, “L7.5 Dil ASTM Color” or “7.5 DilASTM Color”). See

29、 Note 3.NOTE 3For samples that are diluted in 10.3, it is permissible for thelaboratory to annotate the report in any suitable manner, provided that theinformation clearly conveys to the data recipient that the sample analyzedwas diluted.11. Precision and Bias511.1 PrecisionThe precision of this tes

30、t method as ob-tained by statistical examination of interlaboratory test resultsis as follows:11.1.1 RepeatabilityThe difference between successivetest results obtained by the same operator with the sameapparatus under constant operating conditions on identical testmaterial would, in the long run, i

31、n the normal and correctoperation of the test method, exceed the following value onlyin one case in twenty: 0.5 color units.5Supporting data have been filed at ASTM International Headquarters and maybe obtained by requesting Research Report RR: D02-1234.FIG. 1 Standard Glass Sample JarD 1500 04a211.

32、1.2 ReproducibilityThe difference between two singleand independent test results obtained by different operatorsworking in different laboratories on identical test materialwould, in the long run, in the normal and correct operation ofthe test method exceed the following value only in one case intwen

33、ty: 1 color unit.11.2 BiasThe procedure in this test method has no biasbecause the value ofASTM Color is subjective and can only bedefined in terms of this test method.12.
